I wear my charcoals much, much more than I do the green. If you want an understated pair, charcoal is great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134197 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 01:51:03 +0000 cciele 134197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally understand how you feel April! I'm glad you returned something that you weren't feeling 100%. I think you should give gray/charcoal Cons a shot! For more enabling, here are mine, which are the same color as NK's but different laces:<br /> <a href="http://i617.photobucket.com/albums/tt252/cciele/Shoes/DSC_2102.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i617.photobucket.com/al.....C_2102.jpg</a></p> <p>(ignore the wrinkly part in the tongue -- I didn't straighten them out) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134180 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 01:36:28 +0000 Debora 134180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April, I missed your original thread. So sorry they didn't work out for you. Would you consider getting the charcoal? I think they would look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134176 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 01:23:46 +0000 NK 134176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, April, though I'm more of a 'collector' than an actual card-maker. Hey, wait! I did churn out 60 valentines for my kids this year! ;)</p> <p><a href="http://adventuresincarpooling.blogspot.com/2010/02/happy-valentines-day.html" rel="nofollow">http://adventuresincarpooling......s-day.html</a></p> <p>Here are my new sneakers:</p> <p><a href="http://whenlifehandsyouapear.wordpress.com/2010/03/13/me-converse/" rel="nofollow">http://whenlifehandsyouapear.w.....-converse/</a></p> <p>I think the color is neutral enough to work for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134171 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 01:01:10 +0000 April 134171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>NK -- I just looked at your profile page: papercrafts and card making? Be still my heart. Fellow card-maker here... </p> <p>Yes, I also like the youthful/retro look of the Cons -- I just think I need a less "look at my shoes" color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134166 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:55:15 +0000 NK 134166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bummer, but I know what you mean. Maybe it was the color? I bought my first pair of Converse this week, from the kids' department no less, and wore them shopping today. I think they make me feel kind of rebelious and immature, but then, sometimes I kinda like that. ;)</p> <p>I orginially got the black, but went back and exchanged them for charcoal gray. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134110 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 21:20:14 +0000 Maya 134110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad April. I wouldn't mind them on you, but I don't think they were a "must have" by any stretch. You have a very refined style so I can see why you wouldn't be totally comfortable with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134109 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 21:18:06 +0000 taylor 134109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know how it is when you want something to work...and you know it just won't:(<br /> At least you know that and can recognize to avoid a wardrobe orphan:) and waste your money. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/follow-upi-returned-the-turquoise-cons#post-134107 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 21:13:24 +0000 April 134107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I knew in my heart that they weren't truly a shoe I would feel confident wearing. "Fun" clothing items are trickier to pull off when you're a smaller person, since you really can end up looking like a kid. </p>
